The Kingdom of God is right here: The lowly manger being lauded by well traveled kings; wisdom from on high unearthing the way of love; the blind seeing the light radiating from a cold tomb. It's backwards. It's beautiful. It's the Kingdom way.

[Sunday] All Things - Keep It Simple
It's right there, all around us is the party of God's abundance. The question for us all is: Will we enjoy ourselves in God’s generosity, or will we rely on our own strength?
- It's right there, all around us is the party of God's abundance. The question for us all is: Will we enjoy ourselves in God’s generosity, or will we rely on our own strength?
Questions for the Week: KEEP IT SIMPLE: - All Things
In what specific areas of your life are you currently relying on your own strength instead of trusting in God's? How can you shift your perspective to embrace God's sufficiency?
Read Philippians 4:10-20. How can we practically apply Paul's example of contentment in all circumstances to our daily lives, especially when facing challenges or hardships?
How can we share the message of God's abundance with others, particularly those who may be struggling or feeling overwhelmed? What specific actions can we take to encourage and support them?
The sermon challenges us to "keep it simple." How can you simplify your life to focus more on God's abundance and less on your own worries and anxieties?

Questions for the Week: KEEP IT SIMPLE: - One Another

On November 10th we will be Singing.
“O God Beyond All Praising” (With One Voice 797)
(We Praise you and Acknowledge You) (LSB 941)
The tune is from Holst’s Jupiter
aka Thaxted
Here is the Same Tune but Different Lyrics
Here is the Grace Piano Version
1. O God beyond all praising,
we worship you today
and sing the love amazing
that songs cannot repay;
for we can only wonder
at every gift you send,
at blessings without number
and mercies without end:
we lift our hearts before you
and wait upon your word,
we honor and adore you,
our great and mighty Lord.
2. You, Christ, are King of glory,
the everlasting Son,
Yet You, with boundless love,
sought to rescue ev’ryone:
You laid aside Your glory,
were born of virgin’s womb,
Were cru-ci-fied for us
and were placed in a tomb;
Then by Your resurrection
You won for us reprieve
You opened heaven’s kingdom
to all who would believe.
3. Then hear, O gracious Savior,
accept the love we bring,
that we who know your favor
may serve you as our king;
and whether our tomorrows
be filled with good or ill,
we'II triumph through our sorrows
and rise to bless you still:
May we with the saints be numbered
where praises never end,
In glory everlasting.
Amen, O Lord, amen

Let’s rediscover the beauty of God's uncomplicated gift of salvation and how it frees us to joyfully participate in His work.
Questions for the Week: KEEP IT SIMPLE: Reformation
In what ways do we tend to overcomplicate our relationship with God, and how can we simplify it in light of the message of salvation by grace?
Read John 10:22-30 How does the Jews’ request of Jesus overcomplicate things? How does Jesus’ response simplify what He is about to do?
What are some practical ways we can live out the understanding that salvation is a gift, not something we earn? How does this affect our daily lives and interactions with others?
How can we effectively share the message of salvation by grace with others, especially those who may be struggling with legalistic or works-based beliefs?
